I recall seeing something somewhere about this. Some people donā€™t get the whole stink thing, because they have a particular gene either switched on or off that controls metabolism of whatever is in asparagus that causes the smell

So basically there are just two types of people in the world. Those whose piss smells bad because of asparagus, and those whose piss smells bad because piss always smells bad.

Day C+65

Todayā€™s session dedicated in sympathy to @flappinit. Been a bit curious about parts of that Deepwater program, so I thought I would give a 10x10 set for overheads a go. I remember a few months ago at the gym doing a 5x10 at 50kilo, so I had some idea that this would be pretty tough. So I call this session officially the ā€œModified Deepwater How Hard Could It Really Be Oh Yeah This Is Actually Quite Hard Oh God When Does It Stop Are We Even Near The End Yet Forget This Shitā€ program.

In actuality, by the end of set 2 I was already planning on dropping the weight after getting through 5 sets and pretending that had been the plan all along, because I didnā€™t think I would get past that and itā€™s not like you assholes would know the difference. At set 4 I was ready to stop entirely. After doing set 5 I was thinking, okay, maybe I can do this. After set 6 I was like, no way I am not going to fucking finish this. Set 7 and beyond was just Robot Mode. I think my average rest time was between 2.5 and 3 minutes (I only timed the last 3).

Slightly annoyed that it is 49 kilo instead of 50, but I canā€™t load 50 on this sumbitch.

Standing Barbell Shoulder Press (OHP)

  • 25 kg x 5 reps

  • 35 kg x 5 reps

  • 45 kg x 5 reps

  • 49 kg x 10 reps 10 Damn Times

  • Barbell Bulgarian Split Squat

    • 5 kg x 5 reps
    • 15 kg x 5 reps
    • 25 kg x 5 reps
    • 35 kg x 5 reps
    • 45 kg x 5 reps (PR)

  • Body Weight Bulgarian Split Squat

    • 10 reps
    • 25 reps (PR)
    • 10 reps

Had planned to do a bit more on the Bulgarians, but was already feeling woblly going into it. Plus I still havenā€™t totally figured out the balance with the bar, so I might not have made it safely past 45. Anyway, felt good. The 25 bodweight ones probably finished off my legs real good anyway.

So you guys are just going to keep working hard and guilting me into doing the same, eh? So much for solidarity, I thought weā€™d all agreed having no gym was an excuse to slack off and eat pizza?

786

Nice work on the 10x10 but I noticed you didnā€™t try out Deep Water on squat day. Smart move. :wink:

Sorry, bud. This is my chance to gain some ground on people who are stronger than me who donā€™t have a home gym.

Number one, do I look like a psycho to you? Actually, I donā€™t even know what the % of max that would be, so obviously I am sure I would crush it.

Number two, did you put your 505 deadlift in as your new avatar, you magnificent bastard?

@dagill2 The idea was to slack off and eat pizza AND still train hard. We believe in you man. You can do it.

You would use a picture of his 505 lift? Thatā€™s kinda weird.

While youā€™re at it, make the biceps bigger. And the mohawk pink.

I said realistic, my biceps arenā€™t going to be bigger than Js anytime soon, at least until amazon ships my synthol.

Why not? I donā€™t really do that much arm work by bro standards.

795

Youā€™re very modest, but it would take me many years to get arms the size of yours.

796

My biceps are literally getting smaller, in spite of direct arm work. Or maybe because of.

Is your body weight weight dropping ? My arms shrink as my body weight reduces ?

Stop coming in here with your science and your soundly deduced conclusions.

Sorry mate how dare I be sensible. Maybe your bicep shrinkage can be fixed by some FST-7 training

It might help my leg bicepses, I should give it a whirl.

Day C+66

Got some real nice butt DOMS from yesterday. Feels like someone has been punching my ass cheeks. And yet not a whiff of soreness in my shoulders, makes no sense. In any event, feeling a bit sleepy and worn down, had a cranky elbow, so nothing special about any of the following:

  • Pull-Up

    • 5 reps
    • 5 reps
    • 5 reps | weighted | 10 kg
    • 5 reps | weighted | 10 kg
    • 5 reps | weighted | 10 kg
    • 5 reps | weighted | 10 kg
    • 10 reps | weighted | 10 kg
    • 15 reps
    • 10 reps
    • 5 reps

  • One-Arm Dumbbell Row

    • 18 kg x 8 reps
    • 18 kg x 8 reps
    • 18 kg x 8 reps
    • 18 kg x 8 reps
    • 18 kg x 15 reps
    • 18 kg x 15 reps

Rows were light because I was doing them slow and working on the path of the bar.
